Alive as Life. About the Russian Language

Many readers are introduced to the works of Chukovsky in childhood, remembering his poems for a lifetime, but often that is where the acquaintance ends. Meanwhile, the beloved classic of children's literature was also a critic, translator, prose writer, linguist,... literary scholar, and memoirist... Chukovsky the translator gifted the Russian reader an entire library of works from English and American literature, Chukovsky the memoirist - a magnificent gallery of portraits of his contemporaries, which are rightly considered some of the best examples of memoir prose of the twentieth century, Chukovsky the researcher - famous books about the Russian language, which have received high praise from specialists and have enjoyed the love of the broadest readership for many decades. One of these books is "Alive as Life," in which the author, without flirting with the reader in any way, easily and captivatingly explains with vivid examples what a complex, interesting, and wisely structured self-regulating system the Russian language is.
